1. GENERAL  
1.01  
The ADC 7-Inch Fiber Distribution System (FDS) (Figure 1) provides the termination,  
splicing, and storage requirements of a large fiber optic cable system. The splice module is compatible  
with the 7-Inch FDS or it can be used with or as a replacement for the Lucent LGX splice modules.  
1.02  
The FDS is modular in design so that additional capacity and functions can be added as  
the system requirements change. A 7-Inch FDS consists of these major components.  
FDS Frame  
FDS Splice Module  
FDS Connector Module (72 terminations)  
Accessories including vertical cable guides  
2. FIBER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM SPLICE MODULE  
2.01  
The splice module permits splicing outside plant (OSP) or intrafacility fiber cable (IFC)  
fibers to each other or to pigtail assemblies. The module provides a protective enclosure for  
mounting splices and for coiling the service loop required in the splicing process.  
2.02  
The splice module can be used as a direct replacement for the LGX splice module and  
can be installed in the same frame.  
3. FDS ACCESSORIES  
3.01  
Optional Interbay Management Panels (IMPs) are available for installation between  
frames. The panels provide storage for patch cords between frames. Other accessories such as  
connector adapters, connector retainers, blank panels, and outside plant and intrafacility fiber  
cable clamp kits are available to complete the installation.  
3.02  
Optional vertical cable guides can be attached at each side of the chassis (see Figure 2),  
unless the splice module is installed in an ADC equipment frame which includes guides. The  
cable guides form a vertical pathway and provide protection and organization for patch cords.  
Four vertical cable guide styles are available. Their use is determined by frame spacing and  
whether they are used with the 7-Inch FDS or LGX frames. Choose one of the vertical cable  
guides that match what is installed on the other FDS equipment in the rack:  
2-inch/2-finger design - Used with LGX modules only, when no rack spacing is used and  
a retrofit IMP panel is installed.  
2-inch/2-finger design – Used with 7-Inch FDS modules when no rack spacing is used  
and a retrofit IMP is installed.  
4-inch/7-finger design – Used with 7-inch FDS modules when no rack spacing is used and  
an IMP is not installed, or when racks are spaced five inches apart and an IMP is used.  
Rear vertical cable guide – Used in a cross-connect application, to organize and route  
fiber optic terminal (FOT) equipment patch cords to the rear of the module.

A. Chassis  
4.02  
The splice module chassis is constructed of heavy gauge aluminum and has a baked  
powder paint finish. The module is compatible with the 7-inch FDS connector module. Cable  
access holes at the left and right side of both modules provide IFC or OSP cable fiber access.  
Fiber access holes in the top and bottom of both modules permit protected routing of pigtails to a  
connector module mounted either above or below the splice module.  
B. Front and Rear Covers  
4.03  
A transparent front cover, hinged at the bottom, protects the fibers and pigtails from  
normal activity near the module. The circuit designation labels provided are to be attached to the  
front of each splice drawer. Circuit identification can be written on labels and attached to the  
designation cards. The front cover can be removed for convenience and protection during  
installation or other activity. The metal rear cover is hinged at the bottom and is removable. The  
removable cover provides access to the interior of the chassis for fiber activity.

Issue 2, January 1998  
C. Splice Drawers  
4.04  
The splice module contains up to six splice drawers. Each splice drawer can handle two  
ADC splice trays. Each ADC splice tray can handle 12 Fusion, heat shrink, mechanical  
(elastomeric), rotary, FibrLok, Qpak, AOFR clip, or Raychem splices using the appropriate splice  
chips. The FST-F3DF-HS18 splice tray can handle 18 heat shrink splices. Individual catalog  
numbers are shown in Table 1.  
5. INSTALLATION  
5.01  
This section describes how to install the splice module in the 7-Inch FDS or LGX frame.  
The sequence of procedures is as follows:  
Unpack and inspect  
Chassis installation  
Cable routing and termination  
Fiber storage and splicing  
A. Unpack  
5.02  
Unpack and inspect the various components as follows:  
1. Inspect the exterior of the shipping container(s) for evidence of rough handling that may  
have damaged the components in the container.  
2. Unpack each container while carefully checking the contents for damage.  
3. If damage is detected or if parts are missing, file a claim with the commercial carrier and  
notify ADC Customer Service. Save damaged cartons for inspection by the carrier.  
4. Refer to the Customer Service section at the back of this instruction sheet for repair,  
replacement, and warranty information.  
5. Save all shipping containers for use if the equipment requires shipment at a future date.  
B. Chassis Installation  
5.03  
This procedure describes how to install the standard 7-inch FDS splice module in either  
an ADC supplied frame or an LGX frame.  
1. Release the latch on the front cover and open it about 2 inches (5 cm).  
2. Lift the front cover from the hinges and place it where it will not be scratched or damaged.  
3. The splice module brackets are installed for a 19-inch equipment rack. If a 23-inch  
equipment rack is being used, remove the brackets and install them with the short  
bracket side against the splice module side as shown in Figure 4.  
Note: If a vertical cable guide is installed on the frame, it must be removed before  
installing the splice module.

C. Cable Routing  
5.04  
Cable installation is performed from the rear side of the splice module. The OSP or IFC  
cables are routed to the back of the module chassis from either above or below the module. The  
pigtails are routed to the connector module through the fiber access holes in the top and bottom  
of the chassis.  
5.05  
Prior to splicing, all cables (OSP and IFC) are routed to and secured to the side of the splice  
module using a cable clamp kit. A total of eight cable clamp positions are available at both sides of  
the chassis. To avoid congestion, OSP and IFC cables should be installed on opposite sides of the  
module. Cables should be clamped as close as possible to the splice module to which the fibers will  
be routed to reduce the length of cable sheath that needs to be stripped and cleaned.

Danger: Infrared radiation is invisible and can seriously damage the retina of the eye.  
Do not look into the optical bulkhead of an operational transmitter, or into the launching  
(output) end of an active fiber. A clean, protective cap or hood MUST be immediately  
placed over any radiating bulkhead receptacle or optical fiber connector to avoid  
exposure to potentially dangerous amounts of radiation. This practice also helps  
prevent contamination of connectors and adapters.  
5.06  
Strip the outer sheath of the cable to expose the inner fiber bundles. Clean the cable core  
as necessary per local practice. The cable sheath must extend about 0.75 inches (1.9 cm) beyond  
the cable clamp. The service loop length shown in Figure 6 includes approximately 30 inches  
(76.2 cm) of fiber within the splice tray for splicing. If buffer tubes or fiber protector sleeves are  
needed add them at this time.

5.07  
One cable clamp kit is currently available. The OSP cable clamp kit accommodates  
cables with outside diameters that range from 0.5 to 0.8 inches (13-20 mm).  
5.08  
Select a grommet that when placed around the cable, has a gap of nearly 0 to 0.30 inches  
(0 - 8 mm). The grommet is not required if the cable diameter is between 0.7 inch and 0.8 inches  
(1.78 cm and 2.03 cm).  
5.09  
Assemble the cable clamp components as shown in Figure 7 and attach to the side of the  
chassis (see Figure 3). If the cable is routed to the chassis from above, install the cable clamp in  
the upper part of the chassis. If the cable is routed to the chassis from below, install the cable  
clamp in the lower part of the chassis.  
5.10  
Some outside plant cables are constructed with a metallic strength member or a metallic  
inner sheath. Since OSP cables are exposed to electrical hazards, all metallic member OSP cables  
must be bonded to ground. Follow local practice using an approved sheath grounding kit connected  
to the #6 framework ground lead.  
GAP OF NEARLY ZERO TO  
0.30 IN. (7.6 MM) WHEN PLACED  
AROUND CABLE.  
IF CABLE DIAMETER IS MORE  
THAN 0.70-IN. (17.8 MM) USE  
ONLY RUBBER CLAMP.

D. Fiber Storage  
5.11  
Open the rear door about 2 inches (5 cm) and lift it from its hinges. Place the cover  
where it will not be scratched or damaged.  
5.12  
Route OSP/IFC fibers through a side access opening in the chassis to the assigned  
drawer of the splice module. Service loop should be stored in the assigned drawer per Figure 8.  
Make sure to route fibers through the retaining ring in the back of the drawer. Passing the fibers  
through the retaining ring is required for the first pass only. The fiber bundles (service loop)  
should make three and one-half passes around the radius limiters and then be routed such that the  
end of the braided sleeve or protective sleeve occurs at a point between the two side radius  
limiters, noted as position “A” in Figure 8, and just onto the splice tray. Coil the fiber bundles  
around the four radius limiters, either counter-clockwise if entering the splice drawer from the  
right, or clockwise if entering the splice drawer from the left.  
E. Pigtails  
5.13  
Individual fibers with a factory installed connector on one end should be bundled together  
in groups (usually 12) and protected by a braided sleeve or loose tubing, and routed from the FDS  
connector module to the splice module splice drawer through fiber pass-through holes at the top or  
bottom of the module, depending on the location of the FDS connector module.  
5.14  
Because the pigtails and IFC/OSP fiber bundles must form a single service loop to enter the  
splice tray, both bundles must enter the splice module from the same side (either left or right side).

6. SPLICING  
6.01  
The splice module accommodates most splicing methods which should be performed in  
accordance with local practices. The splice tray splice chip should be selected to match the local  
splice method.  
6.02  
6.03  
Open the drawer and remove the splice tray while carefully uncoiling the service loop.  
Secure the fiber bundles to the splice tray with tie wraps as shown in Figure 9. The tie  
wraps should secure the protective sleeve or jacket but must not pinch the fibers.  
6.04  
Route the fibers on the splice tray as shown in Figure 9. The routing in the splice tray is  
dependent on the fiber entry direction (either from the left or the right).
